Guide Image

The Guide Image serves as a creative reference for the model and is an excellent way to create new variations and enhance your creations.

To add a Guide Image, tap the 'branch' button then select the desired image from your photos library or history.

The 'Strength' parameter allows you to fine-tune how closely the generated image resembles the starting image. Higher values will make the generated images closely align with the Guide Image, while lower values provide greater creative freedom, resulting in unique and distinct outputs.

The number of steps required to generate the new image will be automatically reduced based on the selected Strength value.

Use PaintOver to add or remove details from your guide image with painting tools. Tip: For best results, keep strength below 50%.

Preventing Degradation: When using a guide image that was generated by the same model and without any additional guidance (like ControlNet or Guide Image), it’s best to use a random seed. Reusing the same seed can lead to visual degradation.

Rule of thumb: If you notice quality loss, shuffle the seed once, then feel free to lock it again.
